Big Odds Winners

So with Leicester looking likely to win the Premiership at odds of 5000/1, and providing the biggest shock in sporting history, what other big odds winners have happened before?

I can only think of Greece winning the Euro's at 500/1 and Ben Curtis winning The Open at the same price.

not really one off events but more accas and stuff.

again not single winners but the biggest coup in horse racing pretty interesting;

Denmark winning the 1992 Euros was a big price - especially as they failed to qualify and only got in because Yugoslavia were thrown out.

England were 500/1 at one point in the 1981 Headingley test match.
